Abstract
Twelve new species of Platypalpus Macquart from Europe and the Middle East are described, classified in three out of the eleven West-Palaearctic species groups. The albiseta group is represented by only one species: P. flavisetoides sp. nov. (Turkey). Two species belong to the longicornis group: P. curvifemur sp. nov. (Turkey) and P. vercorsensis sp. nov. (France). The pallidiventris-cursitans group is the most abundant group with nine species: P. exsectus sp. nov. (Bulgaria), P. huzur sp. nov. (Turkey, Greece), P. kayakoyensis sp. nov. (Turkey), P. kubiki sp. nov. (Spain), P. lorcaensis sp. nov. (Spain), P. sanrossorensis sp. nov. (Italy), P. serviae sp. nov. (Spain, Portugal), P. slovacus sp. nov. (Slovakia) and P. turgidoides sp. nov. (Spain).
期刊介绍:
Zootaxa is a peer-reviewed international journal for rapid publication of high quality papers on any aspect of systematic zoology, with a preference for large taxonomic works such as monographs and revisions. Zootaxa considers papers on all animal taxa, both living and fossil, and especially encourages descriptions of new taxa. All types of taxonomic papers are considered, including theories and methods of systematics and phylogeny, taxonomic monographs, revisions and reviews, catalogues/checklists, biographies and bibliographies, identification guides, analysis of characters, phylogenetic relationships and zoogeographical patterns of distribution, descriptions of taxa, and nomenclature. Open access publishing option is strongly encouraged for authors with research grants and other funds. For those without grants/funds, all accepted manuscripts will be published but access is secured for subscribers only.
